America has its "why": very wide roads, endless parks, arid canyons. Cars with giant engines. These include Corvette C6 Z06. S2006 was produced from 2013 to 6 and was one of the most successful corvettes in history. First of all, for his line, which is still very relevant and not too American, which we Europeans like; secondly: it's a fantastic car to drive.

La Corvette Z06 in particular, it is more powerful than the standard C6; the latter is equipped with a 6,0-liter V8 with 431 hp, and the Z06 a 7,0-liter V8 with 513 hp a 6.500 inputs e 637 Nm of torque at 4.800 rpm.

Strength enough to create it 0-100 km / h in 3,9 seconds up to maximum speed 320 km / h.

PAST AND FUTURE

But corvette The C6 is not only capable of accelerating in a straight line, but also capable of cornering. Even with this motor monster under the hood, the Z06 weighs just 1418 kg. This is thanks to the aluminum frame with magnesium feet and the mudguards are made from carbon fiber.

The latest revision is six-speed manual transmission with a transmission layout (i.e. mounted at the rear to better balance the weight of the vehicle).

Otherwise, we find a very old link-and-rocker engine as a concept, but for this reason reliable and high torque, and single leaf spring aluminum wishbones. In short, the car lightweight, balanced but with solutions as old as dinosaurs. But that's part of its charm.

Opening the door reveals a gray plastic celebration. What do I remember interior of the corvette they were never pretty. On the other hand, the three-spoke steering wheel is clean and buttonless, and the instruments are the most crisp and legible I've ever seen. Otherwise, the interior design could have been the same as any Mondeo from the early 90s.

THE CAR THAT DRIVES

He won't have a Bentley salon, but Corvette Z06 knows how to give you great pleasure. The engine is a true force of nature, full at any speed and with an epic soundtrack. Between corners, the Vette is much more agile and sincere than one might expect. It turns, brakes and grips the pavement with a grip you don't even know you have. And if you want to go sideways, just "unplug everything" and be confident in your abilities, then blow up a giant Goodyear Super Eagle F1 da 325/30 ZR 19 – Price: + RUB XNUMX it's child's play.

EXCELLENT USE BUT MANAGEMENT COSTS

La Corvette Z06 located used to 50.000 euro: not very small compared to C6 (which costs about 35.000 euros of the same generation)but Z06 should be viewed as GT3 RS model 911.

Once you get past the price hurdle, you have to deal with super tax (hopefully the era of terror is over) and consumption, high but not crazy. The declared average figure is 7 km / l, and on the highway at a speed of 130 km / h the consumption is about 10 km / l.
